I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 7 Prince Erick 2
previous story:
Sayn tells Eva her plan to kill the King. He even asked if he would be a better King than Denis. Eva could not answer that.
Sayn disappeared after her and never showed up the next day. Even though Eva could see the princes and princesses already attending class. There is also a foreign face. He was the prince of Erick, who had never expected by everyone that the man would take classes in the royal academy.

Prince Erick smiled slightly. Most of the students asked the reason why his Kingdom did nothing to the dark witches hiding in their kingdom.
Prince Erick answered all the questions calmly and flat-faced. All the answers were the same "We didn't do it because it wasn't necessary"
The answer was very ambiguous and vague, making the other students ask further. But Ranger Erick did not respond to her as they asked twice. He ignored her as if he had not heard the question at all.
"Mr..." Reina suddenly came forward in a timid manner and said "I can help you.
Prince Erick tilted his head in confusion as he did not understand.
"I can help you track down the dark wizard with my light magic" he continued with a little confidence.
Prince Erick flinched for a moment before finally smiling awkwardly. "no need. We got a lot of light witches to track them down. So there's no need to harm a little girl like you" he said politely.
Reina opened her mouth, wanting to say something. Like trying to convince Erick. But the man said. "I'll go home first" he said as he looked at everyone.
Prince Erick moved out of his chair, wanting to go out of the room. But suddenly he saw Eva and they looked at him. Prince Erick let out a meaningful smile, and changed the direction of his steps towards the direction Eva was sitting.
When I saw the young man walking towards me, I was a little nervous. Why is he here? I don't know him at all.
As Eva was preoccupied with her thoughts, prince Erick had already arrived before her eyes.
"Miss Eva" he said
"Yes" I quickly replied, in a slightly shocked tone.
"I've heard of miss. Miss is very famous. Can we be friends?" she asked.
I tilt my head confused. Thinking how I'm famous. I guess I didn't do anything conspicuous, how could my existence be known to a kingdom so far away?
"No problem. I am also happy to get acquainted with His Majesty" I stood up and saluted in the style of a noble.
"Don't talk too formally. We're going to be classmates for a few months now" Prince Erick said. She suddenly took Eva's arm and kissed the back of her hand. "It's nice to meet you Eva Van Court. Princess Duke Court" he said.
I froze and didn't know how to respond. So I just nodded small.
"Until we meet again" Prince Erick let go of his grip and immediately waved at Eva.
I stared at the young man's back until he disappeared from the room. Because of Prince Erick's treatment, I was the center of attention. I could feel a lot of eyes shooting at me. Makes me shudder a little.
"Eva.." Then suddenly I heard someone calling me. She was the noble girl from the Kano Kingdom sitting beside me.
"Eh? Me?" I pointed to myself not believing.
"yes" the girl nodded. "My name is Berta" he said shyly. "Can we be friends?"
I blinked my eyes a few times and answered. "Of course"
At that time, I made a new friend. A little girl from the Kano kingdom. His father was a Marquis.

Prince Erick returned to the palace hall after his class was over. There his father and also King Kano were waiting for him. King Albion will return to his country today. They had also created a magic circle that connected the two kingdoms in secret.
The circle was located near the outer gate of the capital. Located on the edge of the forest. It was quite hidden because there was a barrier placed there and there were soldiers standing guard inside the barrier.
After bidding farewell to the host, King Albion returned with half the group of soldiers he had brought along. Half the group of warriors still remained in the Kano kingdom to guard Prince Erick.
The Magic Circle could not accommodate many people, so they had to take turns using it. And of course the King gets his first turn.
Prince Erick and King Albion are in the carriage at the moment. The prince wanted to take his father's departure to the gate. After seeing his father leave safely, he would return to the kingdom again.
"What about the academy?" ask the King.
"Not bad. But I think the Well royal system fits better with our system" Prince Erick commented.
"You're right. But we have not been able to set foot on that kingdom for now" King Albion said
"Why? I wanted to ask you about this for a long time. Why are you so obsessed with that kingdom and Duke Court?" prince Erick asked full of questions. His father hid something from him and he didn't like it at all.
King Albion looked at his son meaningfully, then he said. "Because I'm not sure yet" he said sadly. "After the time comes, I'll tell you everything"
Prince Erick frowned, not satisfied with the King's reply at all. But he didn't ask anymore.
The atmosphere became awkward and silent for a while. Until finally, they arrived at their destination.
The king immediately got off the carriage. The prince helped him down.
"I won't take the train. You can use it here" said the King. He along with a few other soldiers headed straight to the middle of the transportation circle.
There were already some senior witches waiting for them. Those witches will activate the magic circle with which they. So that the case of the magic circle could not be used due to lack of mana, would not happen.
"Take good care of your son" King Albion waved for the last time.
"You too. Take care of your health"
King Albion nodded lightly with a smile. The old man along with a few other people oun disappeared from before his eyes.
After the King returned, the Prince did not wait any longer in that place. He soon returned to the kingdom by car and the coachman.
